(a) Gas jet density measurement setup. The phase offset of the probe beam (∼3 cm diameter) after it passes through the gas plume was measured using a wavefront sensor. (b) Example microscope image of gas jet throat used for width measurements. (c) Raw phase data measured from a representative shot. A 3D model of a small section of the 30 cm elliptical gas jet is shown in (d). Image courtesy of the ATAP Division

An artistic representation of a liquidlike fireball of "quark-gluon plasma" (QGP) created in a collision of two gold ions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). This collision has also produced a correlated spray of particles (a "jet") back-to-back with a photon (wavy purple line). Scientists from RHIC's STAR Collaboration showed that interactions of the jet particles cause the QGP to splash sideways, like the wake behind a power boat, enabling them to measure properties of the plasma.

(l-r) Researchers Anthony Gonsalves, Alessio Amodio, and Dan Wang at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory align precision optics to prepare the Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA) Petawatt laser for laser-plasma accelerator (LPA) experiments. The machine learning–based control algorithm stabilizes the high-power laser’s pointing at the LPA target.(Credit: Thor Swift/Berkeley Lab).
